Abstract
The intensive felling of plantations, in the process of logging, leads to a decrease in the forest area, reducing their quality. Natural and artificial reforestation is the work aimed at compensating the reduction of forest area. Reforestation with seedlings with a closed root system in containers is a modern trend used worldwide. The article is devoted to the study of the properties of wood-cement composite material in relation to the possibility of its use for the manufacture of biodegradable planting containers, mainly for large-sized planting material. As a result of experimental studies, strength properties and dynamics of their decrease depending on the time of the material in natural soil conditions are determined. The reduction of the compressive strength of the material from 3.36 MPa to 1.65 MPa for 42 months was found.
